Biography
My work experience with the USGS includes investigation of climate-related hydrologic trends, watershed rainfall-runoff modeling, hydraulic modeling, statistical modeling, eco-hydrologic assessments, riverine and lacustrine sediment mapping, and public-water-supply water budgets. Ongoing and recent work includes: documenting historical long-term trends and modeling of future climate-related changes in streamflow and groundwater; development of national streamflow and groundwater climate change indicators in cooperation with USEPA; investigation of statistical methods for forecasting groundwater levels in the U.S.; investigation of trends in low flows and flood flows across the U.S.; and researching methods for computing river flows using satellite imagery and altimetry data.

Simulation of the Quantity, Variability, and Timing of Streamflow in the Dennys River Basin, Maine, by Use of a Precipitation-Runoff Watershed Model
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Maine Department of Marine Resources Bureau of Sea Run Fisheries and Habitat, began a study in 2004 to characterize the quantity, variability, and timing of streamflow in the Dennys River. The study included a synoptic summary of historical streamflow data at a long-term streamflow gage,...

Impacts of Low-Flow and Stream-Temperature Changes on Endangered Atlantic Salmon - Current Research
Recent climate studies in New England and the northeastern United States have shown evidence of physical changes over time, including trends toward earlier snowmelt runoff, decreasing river ice, and increasing spring water temperatures. A U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) study funded by the National Global Warming and Wildlife Science Center will be...

Historical Changes in Precipitation and Streamflow in the U.S. Great Lakes Basin, 1915-2004
The total amount of water in the Great Lakes Basin is important in the long-term allocation of water to human use and to riparian and aquatic ecosystems. The water available during low-flow periods is particularly important because the short-term demands for the water can exceed the supply. Precipitation increased over the last 90 years in the...

Estimated Magnitudes and Recurrence Intervals of Peak Flows on the Mousam and Little Ossipee Rivers for the Flood of April 2007 in Southern Maine
Large amounts of rain fell on southern Maine from the afternoon of April 15, 2007, to the afternoon of April 16, 2007, causing substantial damage to houses, roads, and culverts. This report provides an estimate of the peak flows on two rivers in southern Maine--the Mousam River and the Little Ossipee River--because of their severe flooding. The...

Estimated Effects of Ground-Water Withdrawals on Streamwater Levels of the Pleasant River near Crebo Flats, Maine, July 1 to September 30, 2005
Surface-water data collected at two streamflow-gaging stations on the Pleasant River were analyzed to determine whether ground-water withdrawals from an irrigation well near the Pleasant River have affected streamflows. The relation between the stream-stage data from the two stations shows that stream stage on days when the well was pumped differs...
